Wow what a day! I’m sure that a lot of you got out amongst it today as I got to the boat ramp at 5am and it was full... wtf? Haha
My wife and boxer pup came out today and we headed out to the 60m area. By the time we got there at about 6am there were a fair few boats already out there. What time do you lot get out there? Great run out with that gentle westerly behind us. Mind you I’m not a huge fan of running out at 18kn in the pitch black!
When we we got out there we dropped anchor at a random area that looked like it had some promising bottom structure and started to burley. We bagged out by 10am so started to slowly head towards my pearly spot. On the way I dragged a soft plastic behind the boat and just before we got there it got hammered. It spat the hook and I wasn’t able to got a look but it felt pretty big. We played around for a little while just drifting for a few drops as we had to head home. We threw back a small pearly and a small Moses Perch and then had to leave.
To top off a great morning on the way back we saw two whales and the water nearly glassed out. Great day to be out on the water. Hope everyone else got some great fish.
